Authorities revealed today that they have ruled the deaths of an Oceola Township couple a double homicide.

But police are not releasing any other information about how they died or the scene of the crime until after autopsies, which are expected to be conducted this afternoon.

Lt. Thomas Sands, commander of the Brighton post, declined to indicate why investigators ruled it a double homicide or whether there was indication the couple's home had been broken into or anything was taken.

The husband and wife were identified as Richard, 65, and Brenda Kowalski, 58.

They were found dead in their home Thursday afternoon by her son.

Sgt. Greg Poulson indicated that the Livingston County Major Crime Task Force has been activated to investigate the case.

Police asked anyone with information about the case to call 517-227-8477.
